jas420221: I ran a Q6600 G0 at 1600 MHz and 1.08 volts and I ran an E8400 C0 at the exact same settings on the same motherboard, etc. The difference at the wall was only 4 watts more for the Quad. Based on other testing, my best guess is that a difference in power consumption of 4 watts at idle is going to translate into a difference of only 1C higher for a Quad compared to rge's testing of an E8400.
That's the good thing about using low volts and low MHz. The difference between the majority of CPUs that Intel produces is very minimal. My 65nm E2160 with 1MB of cache at these same settings was 4 watts less than an E8400 so for a processor similar to that, I would use 1C less than rge's recommendations.
Brian75: At least you took some time and did your homework before showing up to class here at XS. I appreciate that and I also understand that not many people have time to read 110+ pages.
Can you try doing a second cool down test at your normal core voltage and MHz. If you overclock, that's fine. Run a test at those settings. That will help give me a better picture of your sensors. I need some data from higher up in the temperature curve. I think randomizer is impressed by your core0 sensor. That's typically the good one!
